MINAPA ROTTI / DIBBA ROTTI
Dibba rotti is also called by several names.It is a quite tasty,crispy uthappam type recipe ideal for evenings.It is a lightly heavy dish made in indian homes..
Materials:
Urad daal -1 cup
Wash and soak it in water for 6 hours
Rice ravva - 2 cups
Soak in water for atleast 6 hours
Salt
Oil 1 cup
Method:
Wash and soak urad daal and grind in to a paste,adding water.The consistancy should be like idli batter
Soak rice ravva in water for 6 hrs ,then drain the water and mix with the urad daal batter.Allow it to ferment atleast for 6 hours.
Place a thick bottomed pan on the stove and add 2 tsp of oil to it.Next place 2 to 3 laddle fulls of batter,lightly  spread it,add 2 to 3 spoons of oil and allow it to shallow fry,covering with a lid,in low to medium heat.After it is done toss it to other side and add 2 tsp oil.Remove it after done.It takes atleast 5 to 10 minutes to shallow fry on both sides.It is crispy and looks spongy..It consumes a little more oil than ordinary dosa or uthappam. It tastes well with onion chutney or besan chutney..
